Blog 22: Final Lesson Refection

(1) Positive Statement

What are you most proud of in your block presentation and/or your senior project? Why?

I am most proud of my activity. I felt that it was engaging and the people in my presentation had fun with it. They enjoyed role playing a vet and vet tech as well as playing with the stuffed animals. I had many people share out what they did to help their fictional animal at the end and it was very interesting to watch.

(2) Questions to Consider

a. What assessment would you give yourself on your block presentation (self-assessment)?

 P        

b. What assessment would you give yourself on your overall senior project (self-assessment)?

P    

(3) What worked for you in your senior project?

My mentorship really worked for me during my project. I learned a lot from observing the staff in the clinic. There were a lot of hands on learning and I gained a lot of knowledge from my mentor and the staff.

(4) (What didn't work) If you had a time machine, what would you have done differently to improve your senior project if you could go back in time?

To improve my senior project, I might have improved upon my essential question. It was a good question; it was just hard to find research to back it up. It was hard to find reliable sources that were also informative.  I would have also done more research to get examples of ways that the veterinary staff communicates and works together.


(5) Finding Value

How has the senior project been helpful to you in your future endeavors?   Be specific and use examples.

Before this project I wanted to be a veterinarian. But after researching and mentoring I learned that going into this field might not be something that I truly want to do. It was a great experience and I learned a lot, such as how to give an injection and wrap an injured leg. I have also improved on my communication and people skills, both through my mentorship and volunteer work at Priceless Pets. Since I am majoring in communications, improving on my people skills will be very important to my future.
